I have never had problems with my daughter (2 and 9 months)snatching,pushing other children but this week suddenly techniques like withholding park visits and confiscating toys to encourage good behaviour are no longer working.it feels like my daughter has picked up on how vulnerable i am(i'm 5 months pregnant) and is kicking and hitting me when upset/frustrated.my husband works long hours and his word seems to hold more sway with her..i have been reduced to tears and don't know how to regain control..i want to plan/do fun stuff with her again but her behaviour means i have to withdraw these treats..so is it boredom making her act up.i know i am really exhausted too as she is waking up a few times a night(with nightmares)so my sleep is v broken.please help..i really don't know how to figure this one out.
